Hi guys,
Heres a quick vid of one of my nats heats,its pretty bad video so my apologies in advance,Due to low attendance there were not big numbers in each heat so we will try and get some better vid at a regatta that we are going to at end of next month.
Pretty happy with how she is coursing now but still some fine tunining with fin etc will smooth it out even better.
I havent been doing alot of oval racing lately so my driving needs a bit of a brush up too lol.



Thanks
Damian

I need to play with props a bit more, the prop in the vid is a 6719/3 with ears taken off and backcut blades, will try some 2 blade props and see how that goes.
Hopefully there will be a good number of entries in the sport hydro class next month and I can get some decent video of it running with more boats on the water.
Still playing with engine mods also, I think I went too far with the intake timing and she was not as quick out of the corners as i would have liked, still coursing at good speeds though, just needs a bit more punch.
Unfortunately with a young family and a buisness to run I didnt have as much time as I would have liked to get her tested and trimmed up before nats but its running better all the time.
Cheers
Damian

Running quite good by the looks of it. Driving the corners pretty well too !
IMO a tad loose for the water you were on, but that's an easy trim adjustment.
Good luck at the major races this season :woohoo:

Hi Scott, thanks for the comments, I still need to spend some time getting the strut depth and angle right but its slowly gettin there, need to get used to driving it and timing my starts better, playing with turnfins too and I rekon were almost there with the shape.
Cheers
